CTR 8300 Maximum CTR is specified for a maximum ambient temperature (Tmra) of
Ambient Temperature +55° Celsius (131° Fahrenheit). This ambient applies to the immediate
operating environment of the CTR, which if installed in a rack cabinet , is
the ambient applying to its location within the cabinet. See Ventilation and
Ambient Temperature Limitations on page 8.
Hot Surfaces The external surfaces of CTR can be hot to touch, especially at high
ambient temperatures.
A hot surfaces warning icon is displayed on the front panel:
Physical stability Ensure that adding a CTR to a rack does not adversely impact the
physical stability of the rack.
Power Supply -48 Vdc CTR has the +ve pin on its DC power supply connector connected to the
chassis.
It must be used with a -48 Vdc power supply which has a +ve ground;
the power supply ground conductor is the +ve supply to the CTR.
The power supply unit must have an accessible power disconnect device
(main switch).
WARNING:The input is reverse polarity protected
against swapping the -48Vdc and Earth feeds. The
input is not protected against feeding +48Vdc to the
Ground pin and Earth to the -48Vdc pin. This will res-
ult in an internal protection circuit failure. NEVER con-
nect to a Negative- Earth Supply.
Power Supply +24 Vdc An external 24 Vdc to -48 Vdc converter is required at sites using 24 Vdc
powering.
Equipment Location CTR must be located in the same immediate area (such as, adjacent
cabinets) as any other equipment that has a connection between the
grounded conductor of the same d.c. supply circuit and the grounding
conductor, and also the point of grounding of the d.c. system. The d.c.
system shall not be grounded elsewhere.
Location of D.C. Power The d.c. power supply unit for CTR equipment must be located within the
Supply same premises as the CTR equipment.
D.C. Supply Compliance, The DC power supply unit must be UL or IEC compliant for a SELV output
Loading and Protection (60 Vdc maximum).
Check to ensure that connection of a CTR system to a new or existing DC
supply does not overload the supply, circuit protection devices and
wiring.
CTR 8300 must be supported from a dedicated circuit breaker located on
its rack power distribution panel. The circuit breaker should have a
rating of 5A or 6A.
The circuit breaker must be used as the CTR power connect/disconnect
devices - do not use the front panel connector as a connect/disconnect
device.

o For ambient temperatures between 45°C and 55°C, not less than 1U (44.5
mm) of clearance must be maintained above the CTR 8300.
o For temperatures below 45°C, no clearance is necessary providing the
equipment installed above or below CTR 8300 is not generating heat
towards the CTR 8300.
n Do not, for example, stack a CTR 8300 directly on top of another CTR
8300.
o Always check the installation to ensure that an air flow can be maintained
to and around the CTR 8300 cooling fins by normal thermal displacement
ventilation or by cabinet fan-forced ventilation.
l For operation in still air, as in a sealed outdoor cabinet where convection-
based cooling applies (no air circulation fan installed):
o For ambient temperatures between 45°C and 55°C, not less than 500 mm
clearance must be maintained above the CTR 8300 to provide the
headroom needed for convection cooling. This headroom may be occupied
by other equipment providing its size and location does not inhibit the
convection cooling process.
o For ambient temperatures below 45°C, not less than 2U (89 mm) clearance
should be maintained above the CTR 8300.
l Ambient temperature is defined as the air temperature in the immediate
vicinity of a CTR 8300.
o Maximum ambient temperatures must not be exceeded.
o CTR 8300 performance is not guaranteed when ambient temperatures
exceed maximums, and/or where air flow to cooling fins is restricted.
o Excessive heat is the number one cause of premature equipment aging and
failure.
CAUTION: The external surfaces of CTR can be hot to touch, espe-
cially at high ambient temperatures.
Installation Procedure
Refer to the preceeding diagrams for rack and wall mount installation. This pro-
cedure is for a standard rack-mount installation:
1. Fit the CTR to the left or right side of the rack using the supplied mounting
brackets and fastening screws. First fit the grounding stud to the short
bracket.
2. Ground the CTR from its grounding stud to the rack/frame ground bar using

Installation Procedure
1. Refer to the preceding diagrams for the wall mount, ODU mount, and mast
mount installation.
2. Ground the CTR 8380 from its grounding stud to the closest earthing point
using a length of 16 mm2 (AWG 6) green PVC insulated stranded copper
wire (supplied).
3. If the CTR 8380 is mounted in a equipment rack/ frame, ensure that there is
a 16 mm2 (AWG 6) wire from the equipment rack/ frame ground bar to the
station ground.
Grounding Safety:
l Do not assume that the mechanical mounting provides sufficient grounding of
the CTR 8380.
l Do not assume an existing ODU or Mast or mounting frame is correctly
grounded. Always check the integrity of the ground connections, which must
include a check through to the master ground for the station. The master
ground bar should be located at the point of cable entry to the equipment
building. Ground wires must provide a direct, low impedance path to the
master ground bar.
l Do not connect other equipment to the same grounding cable as the CTR
8380. Each item of equipment in a rack must be separately grounded. When
the CTR 8380 is mounted to ODU, each is to have a separate earth cable to
the earthing point. Do not connect the CTR 8380 earth to the ODU.
l The CTR must be located in the same immediate area as all other equipment
with a (ground) connection to a common DC supply source.
4. For CTR 8380, the SD card is installed at manufacture and is a non-
serviceable part.
l The SD card holds the SW load, default/ current configuration, and as-
ordered capacity and feature licenses.
o CTR 8380 operates directly from the SD card.
o The SD card is identified by a unique serial number, which identifies a
terminal for capacity and feature license purposes. It also retains copy of
the current terminal configuration, and the previous configuration for roll-
back purposes.
o The serial number of the SD Card in the unit is on a label on the side of
CTR 8380. This is required when doing a license update on CTR 8380.

consumption specifications and the supply capability of the power supply
system. This check of capacity must extend to the DC power supply and not
just to an intermediate connection point.
Mechanical Loading When installing an indoor unit in a rack, ensure the rack is securely
anchored. Ensure that the additional loading of a CTR indoor unit or units will
not cause any reduction in the mechanical stability of the rack.
Restricted Access CTR must be installed in restricted access sites. The indoor unit and asso-
ciated power supply must be installed in restricted areas, such as dedicated
equipment rooms, closets, cabinets, or the like. Access to any tower and
antenna location must be restricted.
For USA:
In restricted access areas install the CTR system in accordance with articles
110-26 and 110-27 of the 2002 National Electrical Code ANSI/ NFPA 70, or to
any subsequent update to this code for the relevant articles.
